I'd like some help with some (perhaps naive) questions.

Can a T414 be replaced by a T800 of the same clock speed with no
other hardware alteration?

As I remember it (please correct me if wrong) the transputer
chips take a fixed frequency clock input (5mhz?) regardless
of their operating speed - so is it possible to replace say a
15mhz part with a 20mhz part with no other changes (and get
the expected performance increase out of the faster part)?
What about the timing for external memory?

What are reasonable going prices for 15 & 20 mhz T800 and T414
chips?

thanks in advance,
		  john
